The subject has been talked about for some time quietly, but no action has been taken. The original proposition was to Join several commercial organ- izations in one body. Perhaps the pre- liminary step will be to fuse the Com- mercial Museum and the Manufacturers and Producers. A large scheme is connected with a proposition for union that has been made by Herbert Furlong, secretary of the Pacific Commercial Museum. This is to establish a commercial exhibition in the Merchants’ Exchange building, | the plan invelving the construction of an additional st to the building, to be roofed in with glass. E. R. Lillenthal, president of the Commercial Museum. has submittéa this plan to the Merchants' Exchange, and Secretary Friedlander of the ex- change has gone so far as to write to Mr. Burnham the architect under whose direction the Merchants’ Ex- change building was constructed, to get views. This matter has been kept as quiet as possible. When ques- tioned Mr. Furlong said yesterday: “While it is true that T did propose | such a plan to President Lilienthal of this institution, d while it is also true that our board of directors favors SHOW PURPOSES ANTA (LARA DELAYED FOR There was trouble on board the ship Santa Clara yesterday because seventy whits men who had contracted to work {in the Alaska canneries as Chinamen ob- jected to being ‘treated as such on board ship.
